Harley-Davidson Reveals the Arctic Blast Street Glide Special

The new Harley-Davidson Arctic Blast Street Glide is a limited edition release of the Street Glide Special.

Harley recently revealed the new version of the bike. This comes after the Pan America and the Sportster S, so as you can imagine, this bike has had its limelight stolen.

This new bike has a brand new colorway. It’s a unique white, light blue, and dark blue blend that to me looks really good.

White Motorcycle Concepts Reveals Electric Land Speed Racer Design Sketches

White Motorcycle Concepts has revealed its WMC250EV land speed record-chasing motorcycle, and then shared some of the various design sketches it has.

This electric motorcycle has some of the most interesting aero technology of any motorcycle I’ve ever seen.

The aero is called the V-Air duct and it’s a genuinely interesting creation.

Harley-Davidson Reveals the All-New Sportster S

Harley-Davidson’s Sportster S is here to breathe some fresh life into the brand.

The new Sportster S features the Revolution Max powertrain that you’ll find in the new Pan America and is a feet-forward, sporty bike more powerful than the current lineup.

While a new Sportster S is a welcomed addition to the HD lineup, I’m not sure this is really the way to go. It’s not a bad move but not totally the right one. Let me explain.

Harley-Davidson and Rev’It! team up for Pan America Adventure Gear

Harley-Davidson and Rev’It! teamed up to bring a new line of adventure gear to the market.

The standard Harley gear simply won’t cut it on the trails, so this makes total sense.

It’s a smart move by both companies to work together and build a new line for this new bike.

Is a Zontes Triple Coming?

The Chinese bike brand Zontes has promised a three-cylinder naked motorcycle.

This bike will be a 1,000cc naked superbike that’s said to rival bikes like the Triumph Speed Triple RS.

Is this thing legit or is this just some hype coming out of the East? China’s motorcycle industry is strong and quickly changing, and this could be a major step forward.

Get Ready for Get On! Adventure Fest in South Dakota

If you want to have an amazing experience on ADV bikes, then you need to check out the Get On! Adventure Fest in the Black Hills of South Dakota from July 15 to 18.

This festival is put on by Revzilla, and the ticket sales will help South Dakota Trails Development Corp., a non-profit dedicated to preserving and expanding single-track trails.

Let’s take a closer look at what this is all about.

The Pan America Could be a Game-Changer for Harley-Davidson

It’s no secret that Harley-Davidson has been struggling lately. That could all change thanks to the new Pan America adventure bike.

The company’s big ADV motorcycle is very different than the bikes the company is known for—big heavy cruisers. The response has been positive from the press, and customers alike.

According to The Milwaukee Business Journal, Harley-Davidson dealers have noticed a strong response from consumers. Bikes disappear from the showroom as soon as they arrive.
